Cleveland at Pittsburgh (10/18/2009)

agree...PIT and PHI all the way

im playing 1 nfl game this week large and this is it.  look at the pitt rush d at home and on grass in general  51 yds. the pass d has had issues which are 100% attributable to troy p out.  he's playing with a brace but even slow i'll take the man.  smith is out as a run stopper but what really makes me love pitt are the newspapers calling out the running game.  pitt needs to establish this like they did vs san diego so they can win come bad weather in nov/dec (parker back, mendenhall with flu?) and cleve gives up 170+ to runningbacks.  cleve will have to throw and really to whom?, stuckey, mohammed? cribbs on the trading block? 2/17 vs a pitiful bills team?  a moron for a coach.  quinn selling his home?
after huge ATS losses to min/den/bal(who all ran over them) they pulled a good effort vs cin and survived the fecal bowl at buff.  they are now primed to let down and get run the hell over.  pitt is still pissed over dropping 2 and will feed on this poorly coached and talent limited team that has lifted their undefeated and post edwards momentum.
bad talent/ poor momentum/ poor coach meets good talent/momentum/coach at home....hmmmmm.

I still don't see why some of you guys think this game will be tight so far Clev has played three road games lost at Denver 27-6, lost at Balt. 34-3 and won big time 6-3 playing a high school team at Buffalo.  So they have scored 15 pts on the road and if you think this defense gets any easier to score on with Troy back you are smoking some good stuff.  Lets give them 5 more pts than their average already on the road and so they score 10.  Pitt scores at least 27 they are still the Super Bowl champs and they will come out of their funct and i beilieve it will be this week at home, in fact with Troy back this game could get real ugly fast the whole team feeds off this guy.  Plus roomer has it that Parker will probably be back also.  Pitt wins big in this divisional match up.

PIT

Simple solution: 2-team teaser this bad boy with the Patriots. Brings it down to a very doable -7 for Pitt and -2.5 for N.E.

Talk about quick, easy money.

No way the Cleveland Steamers can hang.  You don't like it at 14?  Tease it down to 8 and throw the other 6 on baltimore to make them a + 9 against the Vikes..

I agree that Pitt is going to dominate Cleveland I am just kind of wondering what teasing Pitt really does.  You arent crossing a key number and they still need to win by two scores.  The teasing of Baltimore makes a lot of sense because you are crossing a key number and getting off the 3 as well.

People are over thinking this game. Pittsburgh will smash this team. They will be lucky if they get a field goal let alone a first down.

TROY POLAMALU 2 INT

I'm on Pitt -14

thats it, I want 2 more scores right now from Pittsburgh
